I followed the desktop guide to try and get the sound working but amixer returns an error stating ALSA drivers are not loaded. I have onboard audio on Intel 850 board made by analog devices. Any tips on where to start looking for the problem?

# /etc/modules.autoload: kernel modules to load when system boots.
#
# Add the names of modules that you'd like to load when the system
# starts into this file, one per line. Comments begin with # and
# are ignored. Read man modules.autoload for additional details.

Try to recompile the kernel with the option "Set version information on all module symbols" (under "Loadable module support") unchecked, if you had it checked before._________________| www.gentoo.org | www.tldp.org | www.google.com |
